J16-4 I41 Collections continued from page 1 Manuscripts Librarian Linda Long said. “(Special Collections) really is a goldmine of information.” Special Collections has served as the University’s repository for his toric and rare materials since 1947. In 1948, its duties were expanded to include University Archives, which houses all official records pertaining to the University. Since then, the department has amassed a mind-boggling amount of items — most of the inventory con sists of donated personal works and effects — into its rare books, photo graphs and other collections. Long said there are millions of items in Special Collections. “In the manuscripts alone, there’s about 20,000 linear feet of docu ments and unpublished writing,” she said. Under each collection is a variety of material, with subjects ranging from politics to entertainment. Within the manuscript collection, one can find a letter written by Thomas Jefferson or piles of scripts from the late 1950s for the “Gun smoke” and “The Rifleman” televi sion shows. A collection donated in 1968 by former Sports Illustrated reporter Jack Olsen includes 34 reels of au diotape featuring conversations with a promising young boxer named Cassius Clay, who would later be come Muhammad Ali. As valuable as some of the hold ings may seem, Normandy Helmer, coordinator of preservation and dig ital services, said she sees their most important function as primary re source material in research. “We have bits and pieces that would bring us a lot of money individ ually,” she said. “But collections like ours are really priceless, not because of how much you can get for a piece or a document, but because you can sit down and personally examine it.” Erik Loomis, a Ph D. history stu dent from the University of New Mexico, visited the campus recent ly, gathering information for a dis sertation on the timber industry in the Northwest. He was able to un "ln the manuscripts alone, there's about 20,000 linear feet of documents and unpublished writing " Linda Long manuscripts librarian cover some of the financial records and ledgers of lumber firms from the 1920s in the department’s Ore gon Collection. “It has been a positive experi ence,” Loomis said. “(Special Col lections) is as good as any archive I’ve ever seen.” Director of Special Collections James D. Fox said it is his hope that as more of the listings of the collec tion are made available on the Web — most are currently not accessible through the library’s online cata logue — the facility will begin to en tice more visitors. “What we’re trying to do is make Special Collections open to all in the community and even the state,” he said. “All of these exhibits and items belong to them.” Craig Coleman is a freelance writer for the Emerald. Citations continued from page t filed as a violation, city prosecutor Liane Richardson said. A first offense at a non-party type situation — such as a 21-year-old giving a beer to an underage roommate — also is likely to mean a violation, she said. “There are always mitigating cir cumstances in every case,” Nelson said, “and these need to be taken into consideration.” If the furnishing case is filed as a violation, a first-time defendant has the option of pleading guilty and go ing through the BUSTED diversion program. The program, which was developed by the court, police de partment and the University’s Sub stance Abuse Prevention Program, includes a 10-hour class and some final paperwork before the case is dismissed. BUSTED is also offered to CAMO PANTS used 12.99 4C7XW SURPLUS 4251 Franklin Blvd, Eugene 746-1301 AAAAAAAAAAAAA, those cited for Minor in Possession, which warrants only one chance to participate in the program. Individuals convicted of a second offense may choose to go to BUSTED II, which would reduce the fine, yet still include a conviction. According to municipal court records for 2002, only six of the 53 defendants opted to go through BUSTED II, which could be attributed to the length of the class, which is 20 hours. But BUSTED II is only available to those who have already taken the BUSTED diversion program or have previously chosen not to attend. The most important thing to re member when a citation is issued, Fine said, is to show up on or before the assigned court date. A failure to appear is basis for a second citation.
